Dot Property Awards Flashback: letting the people decide

BEATNIQ from Thai developer SC Asset won the first People’s Choice Award for Project of the Year Southeast Asia

One of the most unique aspects of the Dot Property Awards is the fact we let the public vote on what it thinks is the best. We started the People’s Choice award at the Dot Property Vietnam Awards 2018. And while there have been small changes since then, the spirit of the honor has remained the same.

We want the public to have a place at the Dot Property Awards. Today, the announcement of the People’s Choice Award for Project of the Year is perhaps the most anticipated moment during every single one of the presentation ceremonies. Winning means a great deal to developers as the public, the people who buy and live in these developments, validates their efforts. It’s truly special.

We will introduce four more People’s Choice Award for Project of the Year in 2020. But before that happens, let’s take a look at the past winners.
